Mariner Montessori School

The teachers are so kind and truly love the kids.

I switched my daughter from another daycare to Mariner Montessori and couldn't be happier. The teachers are very dedicated to the children and helping them learn. They truly seem passionate about what they do. The creativity of the teachers is incredible, with many new projects every day. My daughter is one of the first to arrive and Ms. Ester is always there ready for her with open arms. She truly cares about my daughter, and I know she is in the best hands. Also a big shout out to her other teachers: Ms. Tania, Ms. Premila, Ms. Haruko, and Ms. Moraima. Every one of them is amazing at what they do. Additionally, the school strives to serve fresh, healthy foods and really took great care when my daughter was limited due to a dairy allergy. I highly recommend Mariner Montessori to anyone looking for a daycare that has a "homey" feel, but is also very professional and well-run.

Our son has been attending Mariner for a few months and everyone from the director to the teachers has been extremely welcoming. He loves his teachers Ms Yaneli, Ms Evelyn and Ms Ana and seems to have so much fun in class! The 3 of them have been so loving and kind to him, it’s very comforting as parents to know you’re leaving your child to genuinely caring and loving teachers.

Our kids have been attending Mariner Montessori since 2019 and we love it! Our oldest started in the infant class and is now in her last year of the Primary class. Our youngest started in Infant last year. Both have thrived thanks to the competence and caring from teachers like Maria, Irene, Lupita, Esther, Adel, Mona, and Ala to name a few. Our 4 year old is doing addition and writing and learning to read already. Our infant has been encouraged to crawl and walk and and always has a smile on her face and clean clothes at pickup. Ms. Jenny and her admin team do a great job running the school on a day to day basis and the owners are present regularly and take pride in the their quality of the school and know many of the kids by name. We would recommend this school to parents who are looking for a good quality Montessori preschool with a sense of community. Update: Nov 2024- we kept our older child at Mariner for her Kindergarten year and she is thriving! The Primary teachers are working with her on reading, writing, and addition/subtraction. Her confidence is flourishing and she enjoys teaching the younger children her “lessons” so they can all learn. Our younger child is in Toddler 1 and thanks to Ms Sharon, Ms Lupe, ans Ms Lei she is potty trained before 30 months! We have seen great improvement in her fine motor skills too. Both girls love going to Mariner and are excited to show me what they are working on when we arrive—a testament to the love of learning and comfortable environment provided by Mariner. Thank you!

My wife and I could not be happier for our son's development. They do a phenomenal job of recognizing what he can do now and looking for ways to push him. Every month in his Toddler class has revealed so much in our son and he recognizes how happy we are to see it! That, and a safe environment, is all we could ask for.

As a physician I know the importance of early childhood development and looked for a program that would go above and beyond. My son is THRIVING having attended mariner Montessori since he was 12 weeks old. He has been in the newborn, infant 1, infant 2 and now toddler 2 classes. He absolutely loves school and will drag his back pack to the front door Sunday evenings asking to go to school. I feel he is so well cared for and genuinely loved by the school staff. We trust the teachers completely and even use some as babysitters over the holidays. We plan to stay at mariner Montessori till our son ages out and we’ll be so sad when that day comes but I know that they have been teaching him and preparing him for that day since he first joined. I would encourage any parent to strongly consider mariner Montessori for their child’s care and education. A huge thank you to Ms Renee, Ms Sandy, Ms Maria, Ms Esther, Ms Claudia, Ms Tania, and Ms Jackie for your love and support of my son.

My daughter was previously enrolled in two different daycares, both of which were difficult experiences due to the lack of care from the caregivers. However, at Mariner Montessori at Galleria, she has had the happiest moments and a wonderful time. She is currently in the Infant 2 class, and her teachers are incredibly caring and loving. They always show genuine empathy for my baby’s feelings, and I feel completely comfortable leaving her in their care. The growth and development I've seen in my daughter since she started with them has been remarkable – I’m amazed by her milestones every day. I’d like to extend a big thank you to Ms. Daniela, Ms. Ester, Ms. Moraima, Ms. Tania, and Ms. Alaguthayammal for all the love, care, and dedication they show my little one. I couldn’t ask for a better environment for her!

The teachers in infants 2 Room are amazing at what they do with our kids! All 4 teachers are amazing, especially Ms. Ester, she goes above and beyond for her students! Thank you for being amazing support for Liam while he was with yall! When we dropped him off, we felt very safe and knew that our little man would be well cared for by Ms Ester and her colleagues! You can tell that they’re all there for amazing reasons!
